The globally leading digital asset management company Grayscale( officially launched the Grayscale DeepBook Trust and Grayscale Walrus Trust on August 12, providing investors with a compliant channel for direct investment in the core protocol tokens of the Sui ecosystem $DEEP and $WAL. This move significantly enhances the institutional-level exposure and credibility of the Sui ecosystem, with the potential to attract more developers and users, driving network effects. Meanwhile, Artemis on-chain data shows that Sui's daily active addresses have reached an all-time high, and the SUI code submission volume has surged in 2025, confirming the thriving development of the ecosystem.

[Grayscale Support | Two Core Protocols Gain Institutional Access] The digital asset investment giant Grayscale ) announced on August 12 the launch of two brand new single-asset investment trust products: Grayscale DeepBook Trust and Grayscale Walrus Trust. These two trusts operate similarly to Grayscale's other single-asset products, exclusively investing in $DEEP and $WAL Tokens, providing qualified institutional and individual investors with a compliant way to directly allocate these two assets. The trust products are now open for daily subscriptions.

【Ecological Cornerstone｜Technical Value of DeepBook and Walrus】 Why did DeepBook and Walrus gain the favor of Grayscale? The key lies in the fact that they are the core infrastructure of the Sui ecosystem:

1. DeepBook: The decentralized central limit order book (CLOB) on Sui is the liquidity pillar of Sui's decentralized finance (DeFi) applications, providing a foundation for high-performance on-chain trading.
2. Walrus: A decentralized storage platform built on Sui that provides developers with flexible, scalable, and programmable solutions for managing large data files (videos, images, PDFs, etc.). Its cross-chain compatibility allows it to handle data from any blockchain, making it a highly versatile tool. Grayscale's Product and Research Director Rayhaneh Sharif-Askary emphasized: "DeepBook and Walrus provide the infrastructure for high-performance on-chain liquidity and data, helping to drive the next wave of scalable, real-world blockchain applications."

【Triple Benefits | Sui Ecosystem Welcomes Strong Growth Engine】 The launch of Grayscale Trust injects strong momentum into the Sui ecosystem:

• Significantly enhance visibility and attractiveness: The brand effect of Grayscale and its large customer base greatly increases the global visibility of the Sui ecosystem.
• Strengthening Institutional Confidence and Ecological Credibility: The endorsement of top-tier institutions is a strong recognition of the value and development potential of the Sui infrastructure.
• Attract developers and users influx: Expected to attract more builders and users to join the Sui network, accelerating the formation of network effects and achieving a spiral rise in ecological value.
• Driving on-chain activity rise: Trust operations may generate demand for related token transactions, thereby enhancing the overall transaction volume of the Sui network. Adeniyi Abiodun, co-founder and Chief Product Officer of Mysten Labs, commented: "The launch of these two products is a landmark moment in the development of the Sui ecosystem. Through the Grayscale DeepBook Trust and Grayscale Walrus Trust, investors will be able to directly allocate to two core protocols within the Sui ecosystem."

[On-chain Verification｜Active Addresses and Developer Activity Reach New Highs]

(Source: Artemis) The favorable news from Grayscale coincides with the booming development trend of the Sui ecosystem:

• Daily Active Addresses (DAAs) Hits a Record High: According to Artemis data, the number of daily active users on the Sui blockchain has reached an unprecedented peak, indicating that user interest and participation in this blockchain continue to rise.
• Developer Activity Soars: The SUI code submission volume ( Code Commits ) has surged in 2025, reflecting the vibrant energy of the developer community and their strong commitment to continuous optimization and upgrades of the protocol.

Conclusion: Grayscale has launched a single-asset trust for its two core protocols, DeepBook and Walrus, providing an institutional-level funding entry and strong credibility endorsement for the Sui ecosystem, marking a significant recognition of its infrastructure value by the mainstream financial community. This milestone event, combined with the record high of daily active addresses on the Sui blockchain and the surge in code submissions, paints a picture of a Layer 1 public chain with solid technical strength, expanding user base, and active developer ecosystem. The compliant entry of institutional funds, the prominence of core DeFi and storage infrastructure, and the accelerated formation of network effects lay a solid foundation for the sustainable growth of the Sui ecosystem. In the future, it is important to monitor key indicators such as the scale of trust fund inflows, the progress of new developer projects, and the total locked value (TVL) on-chain, to validate the continuity of this growth momentum. Sui is showing great potential to become the next-generation leader in high-performance blockchain.
